Fixed the first error with 'buildbot try'. Getting a new problem related to 'cvs diff', need to post to the mailing list again.

New problem can be fixed by adding '-N' flag. Need to post to mailing list and see if this can be changed in trunk.

Port forwards to the VMs were enabled. I spent a few hours figuring out why I couldn't connect to the Windows 2003 server with RDP, turns out the encryption level was too high.
shaver would like to get a list of things we need to do before bringing new VMs online. I think this is a good idea. It would be unfortunate if projects were held up because of politics.

Ubuntu Desktop and Ubuntu Server generic images are now available in /usr2/Generic VMs. Windows 2003 to come.
